Objective morality as a proper basic belief
RE: Objective morality as a proper basic belief

You are admitting that moral facts exist. These facts exist regardless of anyones opinion or attitude about them.

Remember moral facts are prescriptions, not descriptions.

Prescriptions or propositions come from minds/intelligence.


Funny enough your God doesn't say Child rape for fun is wrong.  Nor does he say Rape is wrong.  Yet you assert with certainty that Child Rape is wrong.
The whole tone of Church teaching in regard to woman is, to the last degree, contemptuous and degrading. - Elizabeth Cady Stanton
